when will it be finalized ?

 

Like others have already mentioned. Unlikely he will any major changes till WC. I want to see what he does after WC. 

 

After Dilip , did we see anyone else from Mumbai as selection chairman ? Dilip vengsarkar was a best in our recent history.

Men's Selection Committee: Ajit Agarkar (Chairman), Shiv Sundar Das, Subroto Banerjee, Salil Ankola, Sridharan Sharath.

 

Full of mediocrity - 90's failed cricketers ( except for Agarkar)

 

When will the 2000 era cricketers take up these important roles- someone like Irfan Pathan or M Kaif.

Great players don't necessarily morph into great selectors or coaches. Different skillsets. Not saying that this group of selectors is going to be great, but if they fail, it is not because they were mediocre cricketers. It is because they are lousy selectors.

True...players like Balaji, Parthiv, Kaif who all have some decent international experience should be given a chance. I know the fee of selection committee is too less for the likes of Bhajji, Yuvi, Zak, Viru...but there need to have some criteria of atleast 50 ODI games and/or 15 Tests (atleast for 3/5 selectors).

That is true but did all of these 90's mediocre players achieved desired results or made a breakthrough selection in their tenure?
MSK Prasad, SS Das, Chetan Sharma, Debasis Mohanty, Harvidner Singh, Sarandeep Singh, Sunil Joshi, Kuruvilla etc. 

My only grudge is that they are miles away from modern cricket mindset and still follow outdated concepts and patterns in selections. Maybe 2000's cricketers can make better decisions.

 

I like appointment of Agarkar though. His commentary views are balanced and I just hope he don't bow down to seniors .

Good decision as of now but we all thought Dravid was a good decision too so there you go....

as long as captain has unlimited power none of these appointments matter.

 

Dhoni left a rotten culture of captain being all powerful.

Don't think selectors matters alot these days. Captain and team management gets players they want most of the time.

But none of his successor command that much amount of respect or success

Rohit being the worst both as a leader and player

Yes. And Dhoni was backed by Srinivasan.

Why are present administrators backing Rohit?

Oh let me guess, they are all inexperienced and lightweight.
